PROTECTS YOUR SKIN FROM ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS

MARKET EVOLUTION

In 2015 the products marketed with a pollution claim represent 3% of skin care products, 1.2%for makeup and 0.9% for hair products.

Recent studies conducted by leader brands show how pollution accelerates skin ageing andespecially in sensitive skins. Lately a clear link has been established between air pollution andthe formation of dark spots.

OUR SOLUTION

5

To preserve your skin from urbanization damages, we have imagined a new generation of invisible facial mask.

UNTIL NOW

Alginates were very well known in thecomposition of peel off mask. Theygive them texture, occlusive andmoisturizing properties

CODIF have worked on the depolymerization of marine alginates using a specific marine

enzyme.

THE RESULT?A new generation of facial mask, totally

invisible to protect your skin all day long

FOR TOMORROW

PHYCOSACCHARIDE AP

OUR SOLUTION

6

Obtained from « alga skin » to protect human skin

PHYCOSACCHARIDE AP

Alginates from « alga skin » are depolymerized to obtain an oligoalginate of high molecular weight.

Applied on human skin, it remains on the surface of the epidermis to form an invisible mask.

HEAVY METALS

7

It works like a thin and invisible mask that catches impurities to avoid their penetration

IN-TUBO TESTProtection of the skin against heavy metals.The epidermis can be attacked with heavy metals from the atmosphere (exhaust fumes, paint, factories, .) and in water.

ResultsPHYCO AP catches (chelates) heavy metals like lead and cadmium.Up to 80% chelation of leadUp to 98% chelation of cadmium

CIGARETTE SMOKES

Your cells feel revivalEX-VIVO TEST: protection of the skin againsttobacco smoke.

Tobacco smoke is responsible for a decrease in moisturizing and oxygenationlevels, it produces free radicals and accentuates wrinkles.

Protocol: Human

reconstituted epidermis

protected or not by Phycosaccharide AP at 2.5% and

exposed to cigarette smoke during one hour.

100% protection ofcellular viability

CIGARETTE SMOKES

Your epidermis recovers its integrityEX-VIVO TEST : protection of the skin against tobacco smoke.

Without cigarette smokes

With cigarette smokes With PHYCO AP + cigarette smokes

100% protection of cellular viability

Protocol: Human

reconstituted epidermis

protected or not by Phycosaccharide AP at 2.5% and

exposed to cigarette smoke during one hour.

IN-VIVO TEST: once you remove it, you eliminate particles caught during the day

ResultsAfter cleansing, skin protected with

Phyco AP presents 38% less particles than skin treated with a

placebo.
